ABSTRACT:
A computer implemented method models a scene in a video acquired by a camera. For each pixel in each frame of the video, a time series of intensities of the pixel is acquired. A harmonic series is extracted from samples of each time series using a sliding window. Distances between the harmonic series are measured. The distances are an estimate of spectral components in an autocorrelation function of underlying dynamic processes in the scene.
